Question

find radius if a cone if slant height = 8 and height = 10​

Answer 1

PLZ MARK IT AS BRAINLIEST AND ALSO LIKE IT

L*L = R*R + H*H

100 = R*R. + 64

R*R= 36

R= 6CM

Answer 2

Actually, the question is wrong because the slant height is like a hypotenuse and we know that hypotenuse is always longer than height and base.

Therefore,

The given measurements should be:

Slant height = 10 units

Height = 8 units

We know,

(slant height)Sq = (height)Sq + (radius) sq

(10) Sq = (8)sq + (radius)sq

10 = 64 + (radius)sq

100 - 64 = (radius)sq

36 = (radius)sq

Radius = √36

Therefore, Radius = 6units
